Here is another flocking experiment: now with Strands! It’s a typical flocking setup, particles are attracted to the particles of similar color, and push back of the one with opposite hues. In addition there is a gravity force forcing them to stay within an orbit.

I have uploaded the scene (SI2012) if you are interested: Orbital_Strands.zip.
